Indefinite Leave to Remain

Post by spencer_joe2000 » Thu Jan 11, 2018 8:12 pm

Hi All,

I got my Biometric resident Card today but noticed my date is from 03-01-2018 till 31-12-2024. That's 6 years. Is this correct? I thought it would have been 10 years.

I went for same day service on 03-01-2018.

Please can you advice

Regards

SpenceJoe

31 December 2024 validity date is due to a requirement by the EU to restrict BRPs which do not incorporate the next generation of encryption technology.

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.

Thanks once again. I am off on this thread. Heading to British Citizenship thread.

Good luck to all who are applying for their ILR
